Marjory Humphries, left, president of the Walton WI
presents Pat Nolan, treasurer of the Walton Hall Board
with a cheque of $500 to be used towards the purchase of
a replacement for the old furnace in the Hall basement
(pictured in the background). The money was raised
through dinners and other WI events.
Theme Thursday wraps up
Thursday was the windup for
Theme Thursday at Walton P.S.
The students assembled into the
activity room where the various
groups showed what they had been
working on.
In Mrs. Bennett's flight program
they had a timed fly-off contest.
They had been working on
designing baskets that could be
used in flight. Some learned that
the material used was too heavy
and so it was back to the drawing
board.
With their baskets completed and
with helium balloons attached, the
basket that hit the ceiling first was
the winner. Winners of this event
were Marcie McClure, Nicholas
Giller, Tyler Elligsen, Laura
Bowers and Nicole Williamson.
Their craft reached the ceiling in
1.73 seconds.
Susan Elston's quilting group
showed off some of their very
colourful quilt blocks made from
wallpaper.
Mrs. Vivian's room had been the
place to build houses of the three
pigs. On this day Mrs. Vivian
brought in the Big, Bad Wolf to see
which of the three houses would
come crashing down. The wolf (a
large fan) could only blow the roof
off one.
Mrs. Scott's group had made
musical instruments from various,
everyday materials (junk) and some
played their instruments while the
others sang, Old Dan Tucker.
Mrs. Vandendool's group had
been working on paper folding
(origami) and using this art they
told these three stories to everyone
present - Dick Whittington's Cat,
Have You See Birds? and The Frog
Prince.
The Grade 2s are working on
their 3 R's - reduce, reuse and
recycle. They were amazed to learn
that it takes 400 years for plastic to
break down and that glass and
styrofoam never breaks down.
The Grade 3s, in studying
weather signs, came up with a few
sayings such as, birds flying low
will bring snow or winter fog will
kill a dog. If anyone in the
community has any other weather
sayings, the class would love to
hear from you.
They also predicted that March
came in like a lion and it will go
out like a lamb. Their predictions

Margaret McInroy hosts WI meeting
Twelve members of Walton
Women's Institute met at Margaret
Mclnroy's new home near Blyth.
The roll call, "What does the WI do
for you and what do you do for the
WI?" was an introduction to the
topic.
Margaret was in charge of the
topic and she noted many of the
answers referred to the advantages
of being a WI member and
obligations fulfilled in the past. She
invited members to participate now
and avail themselves of
opportunities for personal
development.
The Mary Stewart Collect is a
prayer written for club women and
used by Women's Institute
branches widely. This code of
conduct for club women was
explained and recommended as a
suitable standard for women's
organizations.
During the business part of the
meeting, members voted to donate
to the Hall Board toward the
purchase of a furnace, for the
maintenance of the Erland Lee
Home museum and the Adelaide
Hoodless Home Museum (both
involved in the formation of WI)
and the Federated Women's
Institute of Ontario (FWIO)
headquarter's building.
Plans were made to cater to
meals on March 6, April 8, July 9,
Aug. 9, and Oct. 26.
A tentative slate of officers was
drawn up for the annual meeting to
be held on April 17, following a
potluck meal.
The next meeting will be held at
the Walton Hall on March 20 with
Marion Godkin, convenor of
Education, in charge. Community
members are invited to bring
favourite and special quilts for
photographing for the Tweedsmuir
History record.
The Huron-Perth WI education
committee has planned workshops
to which all women are welcome to
attend. Topics are herbs, planting a
planter or window box, ribbon
embroidery or needle tatting. There
is a $15 registration fee and
materials for needlework. For
further details contact Margaret
McInroy at 523-9634!
